- Manage significant project budgets, financial forecasts, change requests and project financial reporting.
- Develop resource plans and coordinate project resources across technical teams, addressing resource conflicts and delivery constraints.
- Partner closely with Architecture, Application Delivery, Infrastructure, Security, IT Finance and other technology teams.
- Build strong relationships with senior IT leaders and bring together stakeholders with different priorities to drive decisions and maintain momentum.
- Manage third-party vendors and procurement requirements, including supporting contract and service-level agreement negotiations and holding vendors accountable for delivery.
